MTB Clinic: Kids 101 (Ages 6-11)
September 27
2:30 pm - 4:00 pm
Kids 101 clinics are for kids ages 6 to 11 who can ride a bike without training wheels and are ready to leave the pavement behind. Skills will be learned primarily through fun activities and games instead of “teaching”. Emphasis will be on having fun, safety and being a respectful, courteous trail user.
Note: A parent or guardian must be present in the area and must be on the trail on a bike for trail riding portion of the program (about the last 30 minutes).
To get the most from this program, the child should already be able to:
- Put on own helmet
- Ride without training wheels
- Ride in a straight line on a field or paved area
- Operate brakes on his/her bike
Skills covered in this program may include:
- Body position for balance
- Using brakes for control and special situations
- Using gears (if bike has them)
- Sighting on the trail
All participants and guardians must have their own bike in good working order and a properly fitting helmet. Please note: if the child’s helmet does not fit properly (ie, too small or big, broken straps, etc.) they will not be able to participate.
Bring your own bike and helmet.
- Ages: 6-11 years
- Cost: $41/person, 20% discount for Greenway Members
